Any recommendations for getting video out of my Pismo to a newer gaming monitor? Not sure what reasonable options are available out there. I see my local MicroCenter has S video to HDMI but the device is 130 dollars. Thank you,

Fantastic, welcome aboard.

I'm about to order another stick for Pismo from OWC soon. Seems to be contributing to machine randomly freezing.

If that panel becomes available, I'm interested in getting one.

Love the packaging!

Good news! I recovered all my stuff from the wrecking yard and they saved it for me.

Grabbed another one and destroyed my car and possibly my neck in the process. Going to the tow yard tomorrow to retrieve the contents of my car and the computer. Thankfully, everyone in our car is okay.

I received bad RAM from OWC but didn’t initiate a return because the time and effort wasn’t worth it. Ordered a new stick and it worked fine. Not sure if that helps, but it’s certainly possible you got a bad stick.

My PowerPC project this year will be to create a network of machines to run some StarCraft and Diablo games. I’ll post later with updates and thoughts. Computers on gaming network: Mac Mini G4 PowerMac G5 iMac G4 iBook G4

Love my MDD and very bummed the power supply suddenly died with no warning. Thanks!

link?

When doing a full restoration, is painting the chassis recommended? I have been worried painting would somehow make proper grounding difficult. Thanks.

Just to be clear and for my piece of mind, is the ground screw the one that attaches the CRT to the front bezel? That's what I have seen on YouTube and used on my project recently. Working on the full recap now so have not reached the point of knowing if CRT discharge was done incorrectly...
